    This function currently only support one style of HEALPix with the

    - Only one column: I (intensity)
    - ORDERING: RING
    - COORDSYS: G (Galactic)
    - OBJECT: FULLSKY
    - INDXSCHM: IMPLICIT

    Parameters
    ----------
    filename : str
        Filename of the output file to write the HEALPix map data
    hpmap : numpy.ndarray (1D)
        1D array containing the HEALPix map data, and the ordering
        scheme should be "RING";
        The data type is preserved in the output FITS file.
    header : fits.Header object
        Extra header to be written
    clobber : bool
        Whether to overwrite the existing file?

    NOTE
    ----
    - This function is intended to replace the most common case of
      `healpy.write_map()`, which still uses some deprecated functions of
      `numpy` and `astropy`, meanwhile, it interface/arguments is not very
      handy.
    - This function (currently) only implement the very basic feature of
      the `healpy.write_map()`.
